Abstract
Described herein is an invention that belongs to the technical field of machines for effecting lap welding operations and relates, in particular, to a device for positioning the metal ends of strips destined, once the said ends are joined one to the other, to constitute can bodies. Envisaged by the invention is a device in which the slots for housing the ends to be welded are defined by at least one pair of guide blocks that are substantially opposed and are shaped in the form of a step in such a way that each constitutes means of abutment for one of the said ends and supporting surfaces for both of the said ends. Advantageously, at least one block in the said at least one pair of blocks can be set with respect to the other.
